Thirteen Chapters of a History of BELIZE

Book Overview

Belize author Assad Shoman Several of the “Thirteen Chapters” are devoted to a description of the Belizean workers ‘and social movements of the late nineteenth and twentieth century. Shoman’s discussion of those movements include the importance of women’s organizations in the struggle of Belizeans for economic, social and political justice.

The underlying theme of “Thirteen Chapters” is the impact of colonialism on the cultures and peoples of Belize, beginning with the Spanish conquest of the ancient Mayan civilizations. Shoman discusses how, contrary to popular belief, Mayan resistance to the Spanish, and later, the British occupiers of what is now modern Belize continued for several hundred years.
